Warlock self-res is a crutch for the weak.
Seriously.
What use is it outside of PvP?
That's right - people who struggle to stay alive can have a second chance at dying again. Give me a Warlock whose build is based around staying alive any day of the week. A Warlock using self-res is basically waiting to die. They're holding the rest of the team back. They don't generate orbs unless they die. They don't activate supers unless they die. They're basically a drain on DPS and team strategy/cohesion. If you're a Warlock with self-res, [i]you're letting your team-mates down[/i].
When recruiting for Raids, I ask people if they use self-res and then turn them down if they say yes. I want my Warlocks to be team-players, not people concerned only about themselves.
[spoiler]It's not really any use in PvP either.[/spoiler]
Edit: apologies if I've stopped replying to someone in particular, this forum makes it impossible to look through everything and keep up with every conversation.
Edit 2: Next week on Ackter Provokes: The Gjallarhorn and how if it was suddenly removed, 99% of players would no longer be able to beat anything!

Don't generate orbs? Argument is invalid, I generate orbs with hive headshots. Just as many as a bitch hunter does with his one orb per kill on golden gun. Don't help my team out? You've obviously never done a hard raid before. Use it as a crutch? No. As a back up plan? Yes. My raid team still gets the hidden chest in VoG from me and another WARLOCK down there blocking the templars teleports. Wanna know what happens if a hunter or titan were in my position? They would die, miserably. A defender titan may block it once with their shield, but not enough to stop all teleports. Your argument is invalid. Don't try to hate on other classes because you're trash.
